    Mesoscale Discussion 0060
    NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
    0446 PM CST Tue Jan 29 2019

    Areas affected...Eastern Pennsylvania...southern New York...far
    western Massachusetts...far southern Vermont

    Concerning...Heavy snow

    Valid 292246Z - 300245Z

    SUMMARY...The potential for 1"+ hourly snow rates will increase in a
    focused corridor across the discussion area over the next few hours.

    DISCUSSION...Lift associated with an approaching shortwave trough is maintaining a persistent corridor of precipitation within a warm
    conveyor oriented from the Mid-Atlantic into New York state, with
    several recent observations indicating moderate to heavy snow and
    1/4 to 1/2 mile visibilities currently. Models (particularly the
    12Z HREF) have handled this axis of precipitation fairly well, and
    suggest that precipitation rates should continue to increase through
    02Z - primarily in response to increased lift associated with the
    approaching shortwave trough axis. Profiles/PFCs suggest that the
    bulk of this precipitation will fall as moderate to heavy snow
    during that time as surface temperatures hover near/below freezing. Precipitation rates will increase to about 1" per hour at times
    (locally higher) through 02Z. These rates should lessen afterward
    as the shortwave trough axis (and associated synoptic lift) weakens
    and warm conveyor shifts eastward.
